We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Vert-Saint-Denis before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help lower your risk.

The trick is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Vert-Saint-Denis before you know it. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new cologne or perfume? 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 can keep it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
