Cheap Flights to Zignago from HK$3,369

If you're not prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Zignago.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel docs, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and pack a sweater in case it gets cool. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Zignago in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
