Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your trip to Villefranche-sur-Saône a breeze. We've compiled some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
