Flights to Ellinwood, Kansas from

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of top travel tips that will help get your Ellinwood vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural fibers and don't forget to pack a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin. Always opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help minimize this risk.

The secret is to be well organized before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Ellinwood in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. 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 in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
