Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. We've made a list of handy hints that will help get your Jacumba escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy work well.
  • The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and wander the aisles wherever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

  • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
