Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. Follow these essential travel tips that will help get your Montpinchon vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
