S$379 Cheap Flights to Liverpool

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. Follow these handy travel tips that will help get your Liverpool escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and don't forget to pack a pullover just in case you get chilly. Always go with roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
• Most travellers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to lessen your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

It's all about being organised. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Liverpool, here you come:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product 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-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
