Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will get your Montebello vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, pack your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
