Flights to Boulogne-sur-Gesse, Occitanie from NT$27,420

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Boulogne-sur-Gesse could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Below are some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

The secret is to be prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Boulogne-sur-Gesse in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
