Cheap Flights to Kelsale from CA $409

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a hassle-free start to your vacation in Kelsale. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Kelsale easy and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Keep your travel documents and passport within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Travelling with your favourite 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're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
