Cheap Flights to Donovaly from HK$4,170

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a trouble-free start to your time in Donovaly. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being organised before your flight will help make your getaway to Donovaly a pleasure. Check out our handy tips for a swift journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
