Flights to Cavalaire-sur-Mer, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur from

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a comfortable start to your time in Cavalaire-sur-Mer. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket 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:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and pick flat, enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your trip to Cavalaire-sur-Mer a piece of cake. Check out our useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
