Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Plagne 1800 escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes work well.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Plagne 1800 easy and painless. Check out our handy hints for a swift journey through security:

• Have your travel documents and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
