S$75 Cheap Flights to Blimbing

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these handy tips that will help get your Blimbing holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural-fibre clothing and take a cardigan in case it gets cool. Go for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your luggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Blimbing quick and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• Have your ID and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
