S$60 Cheap Flights to Bassi

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will get your Bassi escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you carry the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Next, find a spot in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also recommended.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to lower your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've put together some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Bassi, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage 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 headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• 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 often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
