Flights to Richland, Georgia from

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Richland vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good choice.
• A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your getaway to Richland quick and painless. Here are some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
