S$160 Cheap Flights to Jackson

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. We've made a list of essential travel tips that will get your Jackson holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and opt for flat, closed-toe footwear like sneakers.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've pulled together some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Jackson, here you come:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Travelling with a new hand and nail cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
