Do you have any tips for my flight to Captiva?

  • What you pack in your cabin baggage can be the difference between a comfortable flight, and a less-than-pleasant experience. 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. Next? It’s all about comfort factor. Earphones, a quality neck pillow and a novel will help the hours fly by while you’re soaring above the clouds.
  • There’s a lengthy list of items you should not pack in your carry-on too. Flammables, explosives and sharps are strictly prohibited in the cabin — they can include razor blades, box cutters, aerosol cans and flares. Some sporting equipment, like baseball bats and tennis rackets, also generally can’t go in your hand luggage. Your airline’s website will have a full list of what you can and can’t bring on board.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft aren’t designed for a fashion show. Layer up in comfy clothes and pack a sweater as it can get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Sneakers or enclosed, flat shoes are ideal for longer journeys.
  • Lessen your risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition which can be caused by sitting for lengthy periods, by regularly moving around the cabin. Otherwise, perform foot and leg exercises in your seat. If you’re at higher risk of developing DVT, consider wearing compression socks or tights.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Captiva?
The key to picking up a cheap, spur-of-the-moment flight to Captiva is to stay flexible. You can increase your odds of landing an awesome deal if you’re not tied to specific travel dates, flight times and airlines. Also compare the prices of flying out of and into alternative airports if that’s a possibility.
