Life-Changing (And Genius!) Plane Hacks That Have Been a Complete Secret Till Now
Stretch To Avoid Swelling
Air travel affects our blood circulation, which is why we experience swelling. Don’t worry; it’s totally normal and generally harmless because sitting for a long period causes the blood to somewhat pool into the veins of your legs. Hence, the leg position is also a factor in increasing pressure in the veins.
If it does bother you, there’s a relatively easy hack you can do before your flight. Stretch before the takeoff; be it at the airport or if you’re already seated. Make sure that you move your legs during the flight, so taking a stroll around the plane will help the circulation flow.
