Cheap Flights to Paisley from HK$1,003

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pain-free start to your time in Paisley. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Paisley a breeze. Check out our useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
