Flights to Sunwal, Lumbini from

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will get your Sunwal escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be easy if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The secret is to be well organized before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Sunwal in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. 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.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
