Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Batopilas could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.
