Cheap Flights to Hateg from HK$5,997

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a comfortable start to your getaway in Hateg. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are always good options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Hateg, here you come:

• Have your passport and boarding pass close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
