Cheap Flights to Georgetown , IN from CA $331

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Georgetown could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Georgetown a breeze. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Travelling with a new hand cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
