Question 10

How to survive the flight to Brest?

Accepted Answer

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a trouble-free start to your time in Brest.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

Flying can be a cruisy experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any daily medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

Comfort should always be your priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Brest?

Accepted Answer

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Brest in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
Can't travel without your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
