Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Rabastens-de-Bigorre could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
