Cheap Flights to Chios from HK$981

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Chios could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Here are some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good choice.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

Being prepared before your flight will make your trip to Chios a breeze. Below you'll find some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
