Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Ciudad Valles could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a pleasure if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
- Most travellers have 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 socks or tights, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
