Do you have any tips for my flight to Mexico City?

  • What you pack in your carry-on baggage can be the difference between a comfortable flight, and one you’d rather forget. Start with the crucial things, like your passport (or a valid ID) and your travel documents. Once they’re packed, throw in any medications you might need. After that, consider your comfort factor. Earphones, a quality neck pillow and a good book will help the hours fly by while you’re soaring through the sky.
  • There’s also a list of prohibited items for your hand luggage which differs between carriers. Generally, avoid packing anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, razor blades, flares and aerosol cans. Sporting equipment like ski poles, baseball bats and objects considered weapons, such as batons and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Whether traveling short or long-haul, layering up is key to a comfortable flight. Opt for loose, natural fabrics that will keep you cool and pack a sweater to cope with any variations in cabin temperatures. Your feet will be happy in a pair of sneakers or flat shoes.
  • The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises while seated can help prevent this developing. Wearing compression socks or tights also helps to lessen your risk.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Mexico City?
Securing a cheap, spur-of-the-moment flight to Mexico City is as simple as being flexible with your travel plans. Have some leeway with your choice of carrier, travel dates and flight times. If your destination has multiple airports, compare the prices of jetting into each of them for the best deal.
