Cheap Flights to Saint-Jean-de-Muzols from HK$336

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Saint-Jean-de-Muzols holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

Being organised before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Saint-Jean-de-Muzols a piece of cake. Below you'll find some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
