Cheap Flights to Biodola from HK$327

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a pain-free start to your holiday in Biodola. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and opt for easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Biodola a pleasure. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Keep your passport and boarding pass handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Can't travel without your favourite hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
