If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a comfortable start to your vacation in Saint-Sernin-du-Bois.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Wear compression socks, drink plenty of water and get your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Saint-Sernin-du-Bois a pleasure. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
