Cheap Flights to Sulitjelma from HK$471

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a pain-free start to your time in Sulitjelma. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Sulitjelma, here you come:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
• 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 earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item 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-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
