Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will get your Tocoa holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
