Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Vernet-les-Bains could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Below are some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you plan to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane feeling 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 luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
