We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and seeing the best of Baudin before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for flat, slightly roomy footwear like slip-ons.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
