Cheap Flights to Silio

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Silio could be a breeze or it could go on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for an easy trip through security. Look out Silio, here you come:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
