Cheap Flights to Hamois from HK$474

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've compiled a list of top travel tips that will help get your Hamois holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

It's all about being organised. We've compiled some top tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Hamois, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
