Cheap Flights to Slad

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through the airport and discovering Slad in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a juicy novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Slad quick and painless. Check out our handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• Keep your passport and boarding pass easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
