Cheap Flights to Kintsana from HK$14,384

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. Check out these handy tips that will get your Kintsana vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you pack the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your prime concern when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy work well.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Kintsana quick and painless. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
