Cheap Flights to Chepelare from HK$1,416

If you're not prepared, travelling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints for a trouble-free start to your holiday in Chepelare. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are always good options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and go for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

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

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Travelling with your favourite cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
