Cheap Flights to Cherbourg-en-Cotentin

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through the airport and seeing the best of Cherbourg-en-Cotentin in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

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. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

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

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Cherbourg-en-Cotentin easy and painless. Check out our top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
