Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Tulancingo holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are flat and easy to take on and off.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.
