Flights to Saint-Pierre, Arrondissement of Saint-Pierre from NT$39,031

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Saint-Pierre vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

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 zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a speedy trip through security. Look out Saint-Pierre, here you come:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
