Cheap Flights to Magny-les-Hameaux from HK$358

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a trouble-free start to your time in Magny-les-Hameaux. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Magny-les-Hameaux, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
