We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through the airport and seeing the best of Torrejon de la Calzada in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
- A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.
