Cheap Flights to Amiens

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Amiens vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and take a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

The answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Look out Amiens, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
