Cheap Flights to Diggle from HK$1,870

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints for a pleasant start to your getaway in Diggle. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are good options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

It's easy — be prepared. We've rounded up some top tips for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Diggle, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? No problem. 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 on board.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
