Cheap Flights to Burabay from HK$1,389

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of top travel tips that will get your Borovoe vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be the goal when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are your best bet.
• The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights is also a wise idea.

It's all about being organized. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Borovoe, here you come:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
