Cheap Flights to Na Yom from HK$235

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Na Yom. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you carry the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The trick is to be organised before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Na Yom in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport 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 easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp items like knives can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
