Cheap Flights to Karur from HK$809

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be testing. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy hints for a worry-free start to your getaway in Karur. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've compiled some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Karur, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often 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 in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
