Cheap Flights to Eugenie-les-Bains from HK$1,590

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Eugenie-les-Bains escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pick shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to take on and off.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've rounded up some useful tips for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Eugenie-les-Bains, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Travelling with a new perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
