Cheap Flights to La Torre Vella from CA $482

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. Follow these handy tips that will help get your La Torre Vella escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out La Torre Vella, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine 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-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
