No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of top travel tips that will help get your Las Salinas escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.
