Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Castelnau-Magnoac could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be the goal when picking what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a smart option.
- It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are numerous ways to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some stretches in your seat.
