We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and seeing the best of Fougax-et-Barrineuf in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of a plane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater as it can get quite cool in the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also recommended.
- Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help lower your risk.
