Flights to Villar-d'Arene, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur from NT$2,863

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Villar-d'Arene could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to bring a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good choice too.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Villar-d'Arene in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
