Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. Check out these handy travel tips that will help get your Montfort-le-Gesnois escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack in your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
