Cheap Flights to Saipan from HK$932

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a hassle-free start to your vacation in Saipan.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and pack a jacket just in case you get cold. Always go with well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your luggage.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being organized before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Saipan quick and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with a new perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
