Cheap Flights to O Lourido from CA $32

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these handy travel tips that will help get your O Lourido vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and go for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out O Lourido, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
