No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’re well prepared. Take a peek at these handy tips that will help get your Richfield vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are always good options. If you plan to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully 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 flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your number one priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a good idea.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to minimize your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Richfield in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Have your travel documents and ID at hand. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned.
• Traveling with a new hand cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, it’s fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines won’t allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
