Cheap Flights to Kurate from HK$514

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Kurate could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and pick closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

The secret is to be well prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Kurate in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy 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 in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
