Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Miege could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Traveling on a plane can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
- A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks may also help.
