Cheap Flights to Linxe from HK$1,246

If you're not prepared, travelling can be testing. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pain-free start to your holiday in Linxe. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Linxe a piece of cake. We've compiled some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? No 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 on board.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
