RM1,610 Cheap Flights to Palm Springs

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Palm Springs holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

The trick is to be well organised before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Palm Springs in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favourite cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you on board.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
