Flights to Verargues, Entre-Vignes from

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and discovering Verargues in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to take a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• A 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 in your seat helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Verargues in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to have your passport and travel documents within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take 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), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
