Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will get your Tuxpan holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any daily medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
