Cheap Flights to Ait Sidi Daoud from HK$315

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. Follow these handy travel tips that will get your Ait Sidi Daoud holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are always good options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.

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 things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your trip to Ait Sidi Daoud easy and painless. Check out our useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. 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.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
