Cheap Flights to Allende from CA $32

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of handy tips that will get your Allende escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Allende, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
