Cheap Flights to Uvaly from HK$249

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of essential travel tips that will get your Uvaly escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a good read. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Uvaly, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to airport security. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
