Cheap Flights to Kihavah from CA $576

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

• First, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and pick flat, closed-toe shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Kihavah, here you come:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
