Cheap Flights to Cayirova from HK$298

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Cayirova could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your trip to Cayirova easy and painless. Check out our handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Can't travel without your favourite hand cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
