Cheap Flights to Ylivieska from HK$2,116

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Ylivieska could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've compiled some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you plan to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Ylivieska, here you come:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Travelling with your favourite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
