Cheap Flights to Fanas

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will get your Fanas holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by dressing in layers, and opt for flat, closed-toe shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

It's simple — be prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Fanas, here you come:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Travelling with a new perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of 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 and will be confiscated.
