Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. We've made a list of top travel tips that will get your Cóbano vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, pack in your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.
