Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Getaria could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander through the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.
