Cheap Flights to Dingle from CA $46

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Dingle escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before your flight will make your getaway to Dingle a breeze. Below are some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Travelling with your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good 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 luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
