Cheap Flights to Artena from HK$332

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will get your Artena holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be well prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Artena before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
