Cheap Flights to Mariato from CA $247

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organized. We've made a list of handy tips that will get your Mariato vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's all about being prepared. We've pulled together some top tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Mariato, here you come:

• Keep your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favourite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
