Cheap Flights to Al Hamra

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a pleasant start to your holiday in Al Hamra.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also recommended.
• A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights may also help.

Being prepared before your flight can make your trip to Al Hamra a breeze. Check out our useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Keep your passport and travel documents within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
