Cheap Flights to Leucate

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Leucate in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are always good options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being organised before you get to the airport can make your trip to Leucate quick and painless. Read through our top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and 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 that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
