Flights to Rennes-en-Grenouilles, Pays de la Loire from NT$25,278

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints for a worry-free start to your time in Rennes-en-Grenouilles. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Rennes-en-Grenouilles a pleasure. Read through our useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes 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 your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
