Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Vuadens could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a pleasure if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
- Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of 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 reduce this risk.
