Even if you have a warm and sunny destination at hand, it can often be chilly on a plane, so you'll need a sweater or scarf to stay comfortable while getting from point A to point B. The key is to think ahead and take advantage of the ideal variety of clothing options. Whether in the air or on the ground, you can adapt to the ever-changing weather.
