Flights to Salon, Nouvelle-Aquitaine from

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and exploring Salon in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Salon in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Have your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
