Cheap Flights to Şirince from HK$914

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a worry-free start to your getaway in Şirince. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and wear flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.

The answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Şirince, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
