If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in Montboucher-sur-Jabron.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a great experience if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Don layers of breathable clothing and take a sweater in case you get cold. Opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a quality pair of compression tights or socks can also help.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Montboucher-sur-Jabron, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
