Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Ferney could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and bring a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your luggage.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.
