If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be daunting. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a worry-free start to your time in Entre-Deux. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
- You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.
