Cheap Flights to Saint-Joseph-de-Beauce from HK$898

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will get your Saint-Joseph-de-Beauce holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Saint-Joseph-de-Beauce in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
