Cheap Flights to Jõgeva from HK$1,046

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a comfortable start to your holiday in Jõgeva. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Jõgeva, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. 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 inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of 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 in the cabin.
