Another excellent way to get the most competitive fare is to shop around. If where you’re headed has a few airports, don’t forget to look into the cost of flying into a smaller terminal. Finally, another easy way to save some cash is be ready to book at a moment’s notice. If you see a fantastic deal, don’t hesitate — grab it while the opportunity’s there.

We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be hightailing it through the airport and having a ball in Phuket in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you’ll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and don’t forget to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good choice too.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and walk around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before your flight can make your trip to Phuket a breeze. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, 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.
• All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board.
