Cheap Flights to Cochrane

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of top travel tips that will help get your Cochrane escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown 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) lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The great news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Cochrane, here you come:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
