Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to De Tour Village could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, pack in your passport, important documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
- Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help lower your risk.
