Do you have any tips for my flight to San Luis Obispo?

  • Get your vacation off to a good start by being prepared. Pack your passport, travel documents and any medications you need first. After that, think about downloading some new movies on your tablet or phone for a guilt-free binge session. Or, toss in that juicy novel you’ve been eager to read. Lastly, a few snacks and a quality neck pillow will help make the trip as comfy as possible.
  • There’s also a list of prohibited items for your hand luggage which can differ between airlines and routes. As a general rule, avoid packing anything explosive, sharp or flammable. This includes things like razor blades, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, ski poles and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort over fashion when flying. Dress in layers and wear natural materials since they allow air and moisture to pass through and keep you cool. Cabins can get colder on longer journeys, so pack a hoodie or similar and always wear sneakers or flat, closed-toe shoes.
  • Consider wearing compression socks or tights to help prevent deep vein thrombosis (DVT). This condition is a result of blood clotting that can be caused by prolonged periods of sitting, especially on long journeys. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat or walking around the cabin will help improve your circulation.

The key to getting a cheap, spur-of-the-moment flight to San Luis Obispo is being flexible. You can snap up a fabulous deal if you’re not tied to specific travel dates, flight times and airlines. Also compare the prices of flying out of and into nearby airports if that’s a possibility.
