S$121 Cheap Flights to Nelliston

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. Check out these handy tips that will get your Nelliston escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a wise idea.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to lessen your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Nelliston in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, 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 electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
