Cheap Flights to Tiptree

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will get your Tiptree escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to pack a cardigan just in case you get cold. Go for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your main luggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Tiptree in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
