If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your holiday in Les Epesses. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a pleasure if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.
