£161 Cheap Flights to Post

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

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, important documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some great options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets chilly 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 wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Post, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
