If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Le Landeron. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and poisons, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and pick closed-toe, flat shoes like sneakers.
- You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.
