S$90 Cheap Flights to Chaloklum

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. Follow these essential travel tips that will help get your Chaloklum escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've put together some top tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Chaloklum, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
