Cheap Flights to Pae from HK$289

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Pae could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you've got all the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Pae, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger 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 bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
