Cheap Flights to Mangrove Cay

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Mangrove Cay in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and opt for flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Mangrove Cay in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
