S$45 Cheap Flights to Chum Saeng

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips for a pain-free start to your time in Chum Saeng. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy shoes like slip-ons.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Chum Saeng in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
