Cheap Flights to Borsa from HK$4,592

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks for a comfortable start to your holiday in Borsa. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Borsa in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
