Cheap Flights to Homa Bay from HK$697

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and exploring Homa Bay in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and wear easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

Being prepared before your flight will make your trip to Homa Bay easy and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
