Cheap Flights to Ville-sous-Anjou from HK$688

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Ville-sous-Anjou holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to take a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

The trick is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Ville-sous-Anjou in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
