We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a ball in Guará in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be easy if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
