Do you have any tips for my flight to El Monte?

  • What you pack in your carry-on bag can be the difference between a comfortable flight, and a less-than-pleasant experience. Start with the important stuff, like a valid ID (like your passport) and your travel documents. Once they’re packed, put in any medications you might need. Next? Think about comfort. Earplugs, a quality neck pillow and a novel will help the hours fly by while you’re soaring above the clouds.
  • There’s a list of items you should not pack in your carry-on bag too. Explosives, flammables and sharps are strictly prohibited in the cabin — they often include knives of any sort, aerosol cans and flares. Some sporting equipment, like baseball bats and martial arts weapons, are also not allowed in your hand luggage. Your airline’s website will have a full list of what you can and can’t take on board.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Whether traveling short or long-haul, layering up is key to a comfy flight. Opt for loose, breathable fabrics that will keep you fresh and pack a pullover to cope with any variations in cabin temperatures. Keep your feet happy in a pair of flat shoes or sneakers.
  • Consider wearing compression tights or socks to reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). This blood clotting condition can be caused by extended periods of sitting, especially on long journeys. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat or walking around the cabin will help improve your circulation.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to El Monte?
The key to getting a cheap, spur-of-the-moment flight to El Monte is to stay flexible. You can land a terrific deal if you’re not tied to specific travel dates, flight times and carriers. Also compare the prices of flying into and out of alternative airports if that’s an option for you.
Where can I learn more about changing or canceling my flight to El Monte?
Most flights are free to cancel within 24 hours of making the reservation. However, some flights are non-refundable, and you may receive a flight credit from the airline to use for a future booking. For more information, please visit our Customer Service Portal.
