No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of top travel tips that will get your Saint-Hippolyte-de-Caton escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Saint-Hippolyte-de-Caton quick and painless. Below you'll find some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
