Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Cabo San Lucas could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We’ve pulled together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It’s also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don’t forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don’t have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of your airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
- Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help lower your risk.
