We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and enjoying Rouen in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be easy if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
