Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Crezilles could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are many ways to lower your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
