We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a blast in La Florida in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First and foremost, put in your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
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 liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes work well.
- Most travellers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are many ways to lessen your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform exercises in your seat.
