Cheap Flights to Noves from HK$449

If you're not prepared, travelling can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips for a worry-free start to your getaway in Noves. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and choose shoes that are flat and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being prepared before your flight can make your getaway to Noves a piece of cake. Below are some handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

• Keep your travel documents and ID close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
