Cheap Flights to Chagni

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these handy tips that will get your Chagni holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Chagni, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
