Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Onet-le-Chateau could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Below are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to take a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a wise idea.
- A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce your risk.
