Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well prepared. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will get your Isla Suasi escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple --- first, pack in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and pack a cardigan just in case you get chilly. Pick flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your main luggage.
- A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks can also help.
