Flights to Royston, Georgia from

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Royston could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful hints that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
• It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and get your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Royston in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
