Cheap Flights to Cizre from CA $70

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Cizre could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. Below are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Cizre a breeze. Read through our handy hints for a swift journey through security:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
