Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will get your Butry-sur-Oise escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and take a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

It's simple --- be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Watch out Butry-sur-Oise, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
