If you’re not prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there’s no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pain-free start to your time in Tupiza.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you’ll arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a sensible choice.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
