These clever tips and hints about airport security checks will save you plenty of time on your trip to Chamonix-Mont-Blanc:

• Airport security staff will request to see your travel ID and boarding pass upon arrival. Tuck them away in an accessible place, so they're all ready for inspection.
• You'll need to place your music on pause for a short while. Headphones and earphones must be removed and put in a tub to be X-rayed. The same applies to items such as keys and coins.
• Electronic goods such as laptops, tablets and phones will need to be put through the X-ray machine separately. Be sure to have them within easy reach.
• Flying with a new perfume? As long as it's not bigger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's placed in a clear resealable plastic bag, you can keep it in your hand luggage.
• Consider the type of footwear you want to fly in. Slippers are great because they're a piece of cake to take off when you're at the security checkpoint. Try wearing a pair on your next journey!
• Some countries have strict biosecurity laws. Think about where you're journeying to and whether or not you can travel with unpackaged foods.
