Cheap Flights to Aarhus from CA $249

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and seeing the best of Aarhus in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Aarhus a piece of cake. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
