Cheap Flights to Zekreet from HK$553

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a trouble-free start to your time in Zekreet.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a pleasure if you pack the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Pick a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Zekreet, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
