Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Le Breuil-en-Bessin could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
