No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will help get your Spanish Wells escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a great experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during longer flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good idea.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.
