Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Chinon could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural-fibre clothing and remember to pack a sweater just in case you get chilly. Pick a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
- Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help reduce this risk.
