Cheap Flights to Tavaco from CA $71

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a trouble-free start to your vacation in Tavaco. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Tavaco in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Have your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
