Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will get your Great Bend escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

First, put in your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Great Bend?

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Great Bend in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Keep them close by.
Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
Travelling with your favourite cologne? No 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, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
