Cheap Flights to Therasia from HK$297

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Therasia could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a few magazines. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are numerous ways to mitigate your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Therasia in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Keep your passport and travel documents within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
