Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organized. We've made a list of essential travel tips that will get your Puerto Cumarebo vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.
