Cheap Flights to Bogazkale from HK$283

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Bogazkale holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you pack the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your trip to Bogazkale a pleasure. Check out our top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
