Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organized. Check out these essential travel tips that will help get your Tocuyito escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a sweater 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 poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
