• The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good read. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being organized before your flight will make your trip to Angouleme a piece of cake. We’ve rounded up some top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID easily accessible. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style 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 luggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
