How to survive the flight to Cedral?
If you're not prepared, traveling can be daunting. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pleasant start to your vacation in Cedral.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
  • Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to minimize your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cedral?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Cedral a pleasure. Below are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

  • Have your ID and travel documents at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
