S$180 Cheap Flights to Lubbock

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Lubbock could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good read. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to mitigate your risk. Wear compression socks, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

It's easy --- be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Lubbock, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
