Do you have any tips for my flight to Sa'gya?

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a pain-free start to your time in Sa'gya. What to pack in your hand luggage:

The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Double-check that you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

Your priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sa'gya?

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

Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
