Cheap Flights to Arisaig from HK$1,712

If you're not prepared, traveling can be challenging. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a comfortable start to your getaway in Arisaig.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good choice too.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are numerous ways to minimize your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Arisaig a pleasure. Below you'll find some top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
