Flights to Entremont, Glières-Val-de-Borne from NT$2,426

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints for a trouble-free start to your time in Entremont. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, important documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being organized before your flight will make your getaway to Entremont quick and painless. Below are some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
