Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’re well prepared. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will get your High Point vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you’ll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don’t have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and pack a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lower your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your getaway to High Point a pleasure. We’ve compiled some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There’s a chance you’ll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
