Cheap Flights to Voltaire

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and exploring Voltaire in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and wear easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Voltaire a breeze. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Have your travel documents and ID within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
