If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be daunting. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a comfortable start to your time in Clavijo. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
