Cheap Flights to Pican from HK$2,221

If you're not prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a stress-free start to your vacation in Pican.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea too.
• A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

The secret is to be well organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Pican in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• 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 suitcase.
