Cheap Flights to Vizela from CA $464

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a hassle-free start to your getaway in Vizela. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, 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 is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Vizela easy and painless. Read through our handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favourite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
