Cheap Flights to Great Harbour

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Great Harbour.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's lots you can do to reduce your risk. Wear compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be well organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Great Harbour before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
