Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well prepared. We've put together a list of handy hints that will get your Richelieu vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Richelieu in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything 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 need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
