Cheap Flights to Glenwood

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a blast in Glenwood in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Glenwood, here you come:

• Have your passport and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
