Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. We've made a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Saint-Lunaire vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy 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 at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to pack a jacket just in case you get chilly. Always go with roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your luggage.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The good news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
