Cheap Flights to Playa Del Rey

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Playa Del Rey could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've put together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Playa Del Rey a pleasure. We've rounded up some handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
