Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Fond Bay could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your prime concern when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are your best bet.
- The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a pair of compression tights or socks is also recommended.
