Flights to Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, Paris from NT$7,572

If you're not prepared, traveling can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a comfortable start to your getaway in Villeneuve-Saint-Georges. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and wear flat, closed-toe shoes like sneakers.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
