• Ensure you take extra supplies of medication in case you get delayed abroad

• Check the details on your ticket as soon as you receive it, to ensure all details for your flight(s) are correct
• Keep your tickets with your passport and visas and do not forget them on the day of travel

• Pack the night before to save rushing and being late for your flight

• Pack travel sizes of all of the lotions and potions you require to save space.

• Check with the airline you are travelling with on the stipulated baggage allowances
• Ensure that your hand baggage allowance does not exceed the level enforced by the airline you are travelling with. This ensures unnecessary embarrassment at the check-in desk, having to move luggage from your hand baggage to your suitcase.

• Check timetables for public transport in advance to ensure you arrive at the airport in plenty of time
• If taking your car pre-book parking wherever possible or get someone to give you a lift in order to save time
• Wherever possible only use metered taxis around the airport

• Check Duty Free allowances carefully particularly on EU destinations.
• Try to book your flights outside of peak hours, in order to avoid busy commuter routes and congestion at the airport.
• Do not drink too much before boarding the aircraft, as alcohol and cabin pressure cause enhanced dehydration. You are also unable to use the toilets until the aircraft is airborne and at a safe altitude for the seat belt sign to be taken off.
• Check with the airline you are travelling with, as to the availability of telephone and lap top power points on board
• Leave contact details for yourself either with someone at home or somebody in the office in case they need to reach you in an emergency
• A phrase book is always handy - remember, not everyone speaks English.

• Try to drink plenty of water whilst on the aircraft as this helps to counter dehydration.
• Check in flight magazines, for gentle exercises to do whilst on board to stop stiffness and tiredness of joints.
• Cleanse and moisturise skin regularly whilst on board again to counter dehydration.
• Eat a light meal onboard as easier to digest, avoid excessive carbohydrates and fats
