Cheap Flights to Potton from CA $122

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

• A plane trip can be a pleasure if you pack the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and pick flat, enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Potton a pleasure. Below are some handy hints for a swift journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
