We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and seeing the best of Calulo in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Traveling on a plane can be easy if you bring the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
