Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Poilley could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack your passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fuels, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
- Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.
