Cheap Flights to Kings Bay

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Kings Bay could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for slightly roomy, flat shoes like sneakers.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Kings Bay, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
