Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Pedro Ruiz holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and go for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to pull on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
