Cheap Flights to Knysna from HK$714

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in Knysna.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple --- first, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to pack a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your luggage.
• The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

It's easy --- be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Knysna, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
• It's also possible you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
