Cheap Flights to K. Bung Khla from HK$243

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy hints that will help get your K. Bung Khla holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and wear closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to K. Bung Khla a piece of cake. Below you'll find some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Have your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favourite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger 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 luggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
