Do you have any tips for my flight to South el Monte?

  • Get your trip off to the best start possible by being well prepared. Pack the important stuff — like travel documents, your passport and any medications you need — first. After that, think about downloading a few blockbuster movies on your tablet for a sans-guilt binge session. Or, toss in that book you’ve been itching to read. Lastly, a snack or two and a neck pillow will go a long way to making the journey as comfortable as possible.
  • There’s also a list of prohibited items for your hand luggage which differs between carriers. As a general rule, avoid packing anything sharp, explosive or flammable. This includes things like razor blades, box cutters, flares and aerosol cans. Sports equipment like ski poles, baseball bats and objects considered weapons, such as batons and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

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 changes in cabin temperatures. Your feet will be happiest in a pair of sneakers or flat shoes.
  • The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting caused by inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot stretches while seated can prevent it developing. Wearing compression socks or tights can also help to lessen your risk.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to South el Monte?
The key to booking a cheap last-minute flight to South el Monte is to be flexible. You can nab an incredible deal if you’re not tied to particular flight times, carriers and travel dates. Also compare the prices of flying into and out of nearby airports if that’s an option for you.
