S$62 Cheap Flights to Ban Bo Luang

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints for a pleasant start to your time in Ban Bo Luang. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Ban Bo Luang, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also possible you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
