Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Dambach-la-Ville could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a pleasure if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and wear flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
- Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.
