Cheap Flights to Harty from HK$306

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will get your Harty escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Harty, here you come:

• Have your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket 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. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
