Cheap Flights to Luc-sur-Mer from HK$1,088

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a pleasant start to your time in Luc-sur-Mer. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Luc-sur-Mer, here you come:

• Keep your ID and boarding pass at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand 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 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• 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 bags.
