Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Matamoros could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.
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 carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be the goal when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are your best bet.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.
