Cheap Flights to Tallud-Sainte-Gemme from HK$337

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Tallud-Sainte-Gemme could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Tallud-Sainte-Gemme in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
