Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Guisamo could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
