S$63 Cheap Flights to Khawasa

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Khawasa could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and choose shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Khawasa, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
