Cheap Flights to Kostolac from HK$229

If you're not prepared, travelling can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a stress-free start to your time in Kostolac. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The secret is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Kostolac before you know it. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
