Cheap Flights to Velen from CA $371

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of handy tips that will help get your Velen escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great flight experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a good book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

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

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
