Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Bassecourt could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've put together some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural fibers and take a cardigan just in case you get cold. Pick a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
- Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's lots you can do to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
