Cheap Flights to Phaltan from HK$466

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and exploring Phaltan before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you take the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Phaltan quick and painless. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
