No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will get your Sacy-le-Petit escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive looking fresh and ready to go.

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 one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes work well.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression socks can also help.

Being prepared before your flight can make your trip to Sacy-le-Petit a pleasure. We've compiled some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

• Keep your passport and travel documents easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new 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 clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
