We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in Cap-Haitien in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and opt for shoes that are flat and easy to pull on and off.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

Being organised before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Cap-Haitien quick and painless. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to have your passport and travel documents close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
