Flights to Stowe, Vermont from

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and having a blast in Stowe in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The trick is to be prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Stowe in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Be sure to keep your passport and travel documents within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item 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.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
