We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a blast in Germs-sur-l'Oussouet in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be easy if you bring the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.
