Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will get your Mauvezin vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First and foremost, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are always good options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.
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. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your main priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
- Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help minimize this risk.
