Cheap Flights to Grafton

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. We've put together a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Grafton holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Grafton in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

• Be sure to keep your passport and travel documents within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
