Cheap Flights to Morelia from CA $346

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Morelia in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to slip on and off.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Morelia, here you come:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Travelling with a new hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
