Cheap Flights to Ayas from CA $178

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a pain-free start to your time in Ayas. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've compiled some helpful hints for an easy trip through security. Watch out Ayas, here you come:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
