Cheap Flights to Berri from HK$455

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these essential travel tips that will help get your Berri escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and opt for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Berri easy and painless. Here are some handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

• Have your ID and travel documents handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine 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-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
