Cheap Flights to Chia from HK$962

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a pleasant start to your vacation in Chia.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you take the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to take a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good idea.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Chia, here you come:

• Have your passport and travel documents close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
