Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Guape could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your priority when picking what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a good idea.
- It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
