Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Del Rio could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and go for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to pull on and off.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
