Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to San Pedro could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a great travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids 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 go for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull on and off.
- Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
