Flights to Rouses Point, New York from

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Rouses Point could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

Being organized before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Rouses Point a pleasure. Check out our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
