> - First things first, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.

> - Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

>   
> What to wear on a flight:
> 
>   
> - The long, narrow aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also recommended.
> - Unfortunately, one risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

### How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ventura?

> - Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
> - The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
> - For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
> - Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
> - The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
> - Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
