We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a blast in Pliego in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, 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 aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to take on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
