Flights to Martigne-sur-Mayenne, Pays de la Loire from NT$17,937

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Martigne-sur-Mayenne could be a breeze or it could go on forever. Here are some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and go for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Martigne-sur-Mayenne a pleasure. Below are some handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
