Cheap Flights to Techny from HK$540

If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a comfortable start to your vacation in Techny.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, put in your passport, travel documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a cardigan just in case you get chilly. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to mitigate your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you get to security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Techny in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
