Cheap Flights to Raebareli from HK$280

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Raebareli. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and opt for flat, enclosed footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Raebareli, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by 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 must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
