Cheap Flights to Kamikoshi from HK$815

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy hints that will get your Kamikoshi escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and pick flat, enclosed shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Kamikoshi quick and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Can't travel without your favourite perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
