Cheap Flights to Staffal from HK$323

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pain-free start to your holiday in Staffal. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Staffal in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
