Cheap Flights to Kamas from HK$4,584

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your time in Kamas. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you take the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and go for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Kamas, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
