Cheap Flights to Husavik from HK$344

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a stress-free start to your getaway in Husavik. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a good read. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Husavik quick and painless. Check out our top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• 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), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
