Cheap Flights to Mauguio

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

• Flying can be a pleasure if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Mauguio in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
