Do you have any tips for my flight to Paris?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and having a blast in Paris in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring 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 hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and opt for flat, slightly roomy footwear like slip-ons.
  • Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Paris?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Paris a piece of cake. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:
  • Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear 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 wise 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 safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
