Cheap Flights to Kotor from HK$1,396

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organized. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Kotor escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Don layers of breathable clothing and pack a sweater just in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Kotor in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Have your ID and travel documents within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
