Cheap Flights to Luzerne

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've compiled a list of top travel tips that will get your Luzerne escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and wear easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

It's all about being prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Luzerne, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favourite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
