Cheap Flights to Pleven from HK$399

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of top travel tips that will help get your Pleven escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Pleven a breeze. Below you'll find some top tips for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and passport someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Can't travel without your favourite hand cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
