We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and discovering Limoux in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, put in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
