Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Romero could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pick shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to slip on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.
