Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Maracacume could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've compiled some useful hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be easy if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to take a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a wise idea.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
