Cheap Flights to Mitchells Flat

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and discovering Mitchells Flat before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your trip to Mitchells Flat quick and painless. Below you'll find some top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
