Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Salagnac could be a breeze or it could go on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, pack your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your main priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to lower your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform exercises in your seat.
