We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and seeing the best of Monte Plata in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and go for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
