Planning To Travel By Air? " Don't Wear These 5 On An Airplane "

Going to the airport does not mean you should be
any less fashionable than you normally are.
However, there are certain important things you
should keep in mind when choosing your travel
outfits. Just2ok Travel , the leading online
Blog, shares 5 things you shouldn’t wear on an
airplane as shared by Jumia Travel Agency.

Tight Clothes




No matter how fashionable you intend to be, try
to ensure you refrain from wearing tight clothing
while on an airplane. This is because those tight
clothes can restrict blood flow in the already
confined space of an airplane seat, which can
lead to risks of deep vein thrombosis, aside the
prevalent discomfort you’ll feel wearing the tight
clothes. It is best to stick with wearing loose-
fitting, natural and breathable fabrics when you
intend to travel by air.


Dirty Clothes

This might seem obvious but you’ll be surprised
at how many people wears less than clean items of
clothing on their bodies, throw on perfume or
cologne so the clothes pass the ‘sniff test’ and
then head off to the airport. However, they fail to
realize that odours are intensified in an airplane,
because many passengers are cramped in close
quarters and stale air is recycled throughout the
cabin for the duration of the flight. It is therefore
important to reserve clean outfits for plane rides
and go easy on perfumes or colognes.





Complicated Outfits

A jumpsuit is a perfect example of a complicated
outfit. It’s probably not best to wear outfits that
will make going to the bathroom in the plane a
herculean task, or that will make sitting down for
extended periods (which is basically all you do on
planes) extremely difficult.


Pajamas or Other House Wares

The fact that you are advised to wear comfortable
clothing when in an airplane, doesn’t mean you
should over do it and dress inappropriately all
together, you’re still going out in public after all.


Check the Airline’s Dress Code

Simply check the airlines dress code to avoid
being turned away for wearing clothing items that
are non-compliant. Some airlines don’t allow
passengers to wear baggy or oversized clothing,
mainly because those clothing items stir up the
suspicion of airline personnel, as they will think
you’re hiding something in all that clothing. Some
airlines do allow such baggy clothing, but you
might have a tough time at security checkpoints
because of how meticulous the security personnel
is likely going to be during your security check.








Side note

Earpiece or Headphone

Don't forget to remove earpiece while taking off and
landing. It can make you go deaf due to rapid
change in air pressure.
