Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Montaigu-le-Blin could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, put in your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for flat, enclosed shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The trick is to be well organized before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Montaigu-le-Blin in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. 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.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
