We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and having a blast in Petit Calivigny before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and pick flat, closed-toe footwear like slip-ons.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
