No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of top travel tips that will get your Ubiarco vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are flat and easy to pull on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
