Cheap Flights to Puli from HK$507

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Puli escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and wear easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Puli a pleasure. Below are some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Travelling with a new cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is 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.
• There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
