Cheap Flights to Aha from HK$1,135

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Aha could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Aha a pleasure. Here are some handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, 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 electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along 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 clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
