Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Mansigné could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be the goal when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy work well.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. But the great news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as you can and wear compression socks or tights.
