Cheap Flights to Valdastico from CA $38

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in Valdastico. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave 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) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and opt for flat, easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organized before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Valdastico in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
