Cheap Flights to Marvejols from HK$4,817

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Marvejols. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you've got all the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The secret is to be organised before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Marvejols in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Can't travel without your favourite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
