Cheap Flights to Salford from CA $443

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Salford could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy 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 sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

It's simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Salford, here you come:

• Have your boarding pass and passport handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favourite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
