We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and exploring La Malbaie in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Next, make room in your bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and don't forget to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good choice too.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

Being organized before you get to the airport can make your getaway to La Malbaie a piece of cake. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
