Cheap Flights to Zinal

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Zinal could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and pack a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also recommended.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Zinal before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
