Cheap Flights to Mount Garnet

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a trouble-free start to your getaway in Mount Garnet. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and pick easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've pulled together some top tips for an easy trip through security. Look out Mount Garnet, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
