Cheap Flights to Autry-le-Chatel from HK$310

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Autry-le-Chatel could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown 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 prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural-fiber clothing and bring a pullover just in case you get cold. Pick a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your main luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

It's all about being prepared. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Autry-le-Chatel, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
