Cheap Flights to Reynosa from CA $139

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a stress-free start to your time in Reynosa. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Reynosa in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Keep your travel documents and passport at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Travelling with your favourite hand cream? 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, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
