Cheap Flights to Delhi from HK$6,200

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and enjoying Delhi in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

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 suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Delhi in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
