If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your holiday in Cabo Negro. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and wear easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
