If you're not prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a trouble-free start to your holiday in Huacachina.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are your best bet.
- A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.
