Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will get your Tete Jaune Cache vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a great flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and matches, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
