Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these handy tips that will help get your Agen-d'Aveyron vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a stress-free experience if you take the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and choose shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to remove.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
