We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and having a ball in Rambouillet in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets cool. Pick a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
