We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through the airport and enjoying La Fouillade in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be easy if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, 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 be as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and don't forget to pack a jacket in case you get cold. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your luggage.
- Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.
