Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Monte Cristi could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
