Cheap Flights to Galle

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Galle could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and wear closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Galle, here you come:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Travelling with your favourite cologne? No 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 bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
