We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a blast in Saint-Rome-de-Tarn in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
