Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Caviahue could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfortable clothing and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good idea.
- You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some stretches in your seat.
