Arrival day
A gentle first day that protects the rest of the holiday.
Confident before you travel
Arrive. Settle.
Do less than you think.
After a westbound flight, immigration, baggage and car collection can make the day longer than the clock suggests. Keep the first evening simple and build energy for tomorrow.
Farr joins this practical detail to the wider journey, so the right answer reflects the route, arrival time, party and stay rather than one isolated rule.
