Cheap Flights to Huai Yap from HK$250

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. Follow these handy tips that will get your Huai Yap vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural fibers and pack a jacket in case you get cold. Always opt for roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your main luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help reduce this risk.

The trick is to be prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Huai Yap in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
