We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be cruising through airport security and enjoying Viesca in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander through the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
