Cheap Flights to Konia from HK$634

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of top travel tips that will get your Konia escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are always good options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and opt for flat, closed-toe shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Konia in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favourite cologne or 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 OK to bring with you on board.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
