Cheap Flights to Inverinate from HK$403

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Inverinate could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some great options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and go for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Inverinate in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• 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.
