Cheap Flights to Burgas from CA $62

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these handy hints that will help get your Burgas escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy footwear like sneakers.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

The trick is to be organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Burgas in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
