Cheap Flights to Kerkennah Islands from HK$2,644

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a trouble-free start to your getaway in Kerkennah Islands. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good read. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and opt for closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Kerkennah Islands easy and painless. We've rounded up some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
