RM457 Cheap Flights to Ski

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Ski could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Here are some handy hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and wear flat, closed-toe shoes like sneakers.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Watch out Ski, here you come:

• Have your boarding pass and ID at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
