No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organized. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Chateaubriant vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you intend to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea too.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

The answer is --- be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Chateaubriant, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner 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-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
