If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips for a comfortable start to your getaway in Le Monastier-Pin-Mories.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

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 gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of your airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's lots you can do to mitigate your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Wander around the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

The trick is to be organized before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Le Monastier-Pin-Mories in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. 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 inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
