Cheap Flights to Cabrits from HK$3,150

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

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Next, leave space in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

It's all about being organised. We've put together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Cabrits, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. 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 in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
