Cheap Flights to Fort-Liberté

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a stress-free start to your time in Fort-Liberté. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a good read. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Look out Fort-Liberté, here you come:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favourite perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
