• The secret to having a great travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling book. You’ll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don’t forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and take a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and wander the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

Being prepared before your flight will make your trip to Laon a piece of cake. Below you’ll find some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume? Not a problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you’re permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• There’s a possibility that you’ll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
