We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a blast in Rambouillet in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, put in your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and choose shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
