Cheap Flights to Obock from HK$1,864

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Obock could be a breeze or it could go on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your trip to Obock quick and painless. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favourite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
