Cheap Flights to Thodupuzha from HK$246

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Thodupuzha vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be easy if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural-fiber clothing and bring a sweater in case it gets cool. Pick a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help reduce this risk.

Being organized before your flight can make your getaway to Thodupuzha easy and painless. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
