Cheap Flights to Armona from HK$1,210

If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a pleasant start to your holiday in Armona. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a few magazines. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

It's simple — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Armona, here you come:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favourite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
