We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and discovering Grand Mere in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Grand Mere quick and painless. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Have your boarding pass and ID someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on 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, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
