Cheap Flights to Pihaena

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a hassle-free start to your holiday in Pihaena. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull on and off.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Pihaena in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
