Cheap Flights to Santubong

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well prepared. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will get your Santubong holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents 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 rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Santubong before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
