Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Capbreton could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Below are some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

It's simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Capbreton, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
