Cheap Flights to Mibu from HK$984

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Follow these essential travel tips that will get your Mibu holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Mibu, here you come:

• Keep your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
