Cheap Flights to Laas

If you're not prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a hassle-free start to your getaway in Laas. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

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 bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

Being prepared before your flight can make your trip to Laas quick and painless. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Travelling with a new perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
