Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to St. Lawrence Gap could be a breeze or it could go on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
