We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a blast in Purmamarca in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a great experience if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and bring a sweater as it can get quite cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a sensible choice.
- Most travellers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
