How to survive the flight to Besancon?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you’ll be hightailing it through the airport and discovering Besancon in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a good book. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don’t forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to pack a sweater in case it gets cool. Opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Besancon?
It’s all about being organised. We’ve rounded up some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Besancon, here you come:

  • Keep your boarding pass and passport close by. They’re the first items you’ll be asked for by airport security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Travelling with a new cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • 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 baggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
