We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and having a ball in Alfredo Pacheco Miranda before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
