If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a trouble-free start to your time in Campo Grande.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural-fibre clothing and take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Go for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.
