Cheap Flights to Sivakasi

If you're not prepared, travelling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your holiday in Sivakasi. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to slip on and off.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be well organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Sivakasi in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
