1. Forget about layering. Lots of times we think of being inside an airport, plane, or vehicle where temperatures are consistent. However, in my travels, I have found that the temperature fluctuates a decent amount between vessels and you can't always rely on consistency. plus as we age, some of us, tend to run hotter from time to time 😆. So, dressing layers is ideal. Lightweight layers if you can. The easier it is to remove and replace a layer, the more comfortable you will be when your air vent above doesn't open up or is stuck on full blast at your head. haha. Bonus tip: clothing with a lot of pockets can be super helpful and if they are in/on a removable layer,that will help you get through security faster (otherwise you might have to empty them all into the bins - note from personal experience 🥺☺️
2. Prioritizing looks over comfort. Although many like to look their best while travelling, sometimes that comes at a cost of comfort. Quite honestly, in all my years of pond hoping - not one person has cared what I look like or what clothes I was wearing. perhaps my travels partners? and even then, there is an almost unspoken understanding that if you look more disheveled than an ogre, it just means you've put in some super long travel hours and likely you will get asked where going to or from and strike up a conversation. So ditch the high fasion and put on your light layers that have room to expand or contract. Edema (water retention) is quite common because of the extended sedentary periods. Find your flexible.
3. Flash footwear. Oh! What you wear on your feet matters so much for your travelling joy. Hot, heavy shoes or boots need to stay at home. Go for easy on& off shoes. Although security rules are ever changing, some places still require you to remove your footwear through security scans. Personally, I find it helpful to slip off my shoes if I get too hot or on a really long flight. Sandals can work too if you're not prone to cold feet - ladies? 😄
Orthotics or arch supports can help you walk longer in comfort as well.
