Cheap Flights to Baillargues from HK$3,979

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. Check out these handy tips that will get your Baillargues escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and go for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Baillargues, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
