Cheap Flights to Srikalahasti from CA $63

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these top travel tips that will help get your Srikalahasti vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your laptop, a charger, medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and pick flat, easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.

The trick is to be prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Srikalahasti in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
