Cheap Flights to Charkhari from HK$574

If you're not prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a pleasant start to your time in Charkhari.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural fibers and remember to pack a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Always go with well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights can also help.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Charkhari in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
