Cheap Flights to Afissos from HK$1,875

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Afissos holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and opt for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to take on and off.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

Being organised before your flight will help make your trip to Afissos a piece of cake. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
