We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a blast in Orcieres before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull on and off.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Orcieres, here you come:

• Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items 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 the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
