Cheap Flights to Kufri from HK$1,500

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. Check out these handy hints that will help get your Kufri holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Kufri a piece of cake. Read through our useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Can't travel without your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
