Cheap Flights to Bubaque from CA $601

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of handy tips that will get your Bubaque escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, important documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Bubaque quick and painless. Check out our handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
