If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a pain-free start to your holiday in Zunil. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are flat and easy to slip on and off.
- Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
