Cheap Flights to Riverside-Albert from CA $158

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. We've made a list of top travel tips that will get your Riverside-Albert vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've compiled some helpful hints for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Riverside-Albert, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
