Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Saint-Bres could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and matches, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
- Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.
