Cheap Flights to Mission

If you're not prepared, travelling can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a worry-free start to your time in Mission.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural-fibre clothing and take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your luggage.
• A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.

Being organised before your flight will make your getaway to Mission a pleasure. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
