Flights to Villeny, Centre-Loire Valley from NT$6,059

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a comfortable start to your getaway in Villeny.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a magazine. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

The answer is simple --- be organized. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Villeny, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Traveling with your favorite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
