We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through the airport and seeing the best of Chupa in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good idea too.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.
