S$52 Cheap Flights to Ban Rong

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these essential travel tips that will help get your Ban Rong escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you pack the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your trip to Ban Rong a piece of cake. Check out our handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
