If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips for a comfortable start to your vacation in Dolbeau-Mistassini.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.
