Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Turbias could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and poisons, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and take a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a sensible choice.
- You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to minimize your risk. Wear compression socks, drink lots of water often and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
