Cheap Flights to Huai Yot from HK$345

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Huai Yot could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a great experience if you carry the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no fashion runway. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

The trick is to be prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Huai Yot in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of 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 on board.
