S$109 Cheap Flights to Hana

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. Follow these top travel tips that will get your Hana holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

The answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Hana, here you come:

• Have your boarding pass and ID easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
