We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and exploring Corozal in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and wear flat, enclosed footwear like slip-ons.
- You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.
