How to get through airport security fast when traveling to California
Your trip to California kicks off as soon as you’ve finished the security checks. Here is a list of handy tips to ensure you get through quickly:

  • Be sure you know the location of your boarding pass and travel ID. You don’t want to hold up the line when you’re asked to produce them.
  • You’ll have to stop the tunes for a short while. Headphones must be taken off and placed in a bin to be X-rayed. The same goes for items such as heavy jackets and belts.
  • Electronic items such as tablets, laptops and phones will need to be put through the X-ray machine separately. Make sure they’re easily accessible.
  • When you approach the security checkpoint, you’ll be asked to place all creams, liquids and gels in a separate bin for scanning. Make sure they’re all in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and sealed in a clear zip-lock bag.
  • Give some thought to the type of footwear you want to fly in. Slippers are great because they’re a piece of cake to step out of when you’re doing the airport security checks. Try wearing a pair on your next journey!
  • Razors and knives are prohibited from entering the aircraft. Pack them in your checked luggage to avoid leaving them at the airport security checkpoint.

How to find cheap flights

What is the best day to buy a plane ticket?

Airfares offered on Friday tend to be the cheapest, according to flight demand on Travelocity.ca in 2021. Purchasing your airfares on a Thursday or Saturday can also provide better value, however our advice if you’re looking to save money is to avoid booking on a Wednesday or Sunday. Our data shows that those two days have the highest ticket values on average, so keep this in mind if you’re browsing flight deals.

 

What are the cheapest days to fly?

Frequent travellers may already know this, earlier in the week is often the cheapest time to fly. Flights departing on a Monday are the cheapest of the week. Since flights towards the middle of the week tend to be more popular, this causes the prices to rise. This is why, on average, airfares booked on Travelocity.ca in 2021 were most expensive for Wednesday departures.

 

How far in advance can you book a flight?

Here’s the deal: It is typically possible to start comparing international airfares on Travelocity.ca up to 12 months in advance. However, it does depend on the carrier as not all airlines release their prices that far out. According to our 2021 flight demand trends, last minute planners can still bag a bargain with some of the cheapest fares appearing 2-4 weeks prior to their travel dates.

*According to flight demand on Travelocity.ca from January to December 2021. Savings are subject to change and may vary depending on selections made.
