Cheap Flights to Gilbert

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Gilbert could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to lower your risk. Wear compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Gilbert before you know it. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to keep your passport and travel documents close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
