Cheap Flights to Tân An

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Tân An could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Tân An a piece of cake. Check out our handy tips for a swift journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
