If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks for a hassle-free start to your time in Caviahue. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are flat and easy to slip on and off.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
