Cheap Flights to Malnate from HK$322

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and having a ball in Malnate before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Malnate in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Keep your travel documents and passport close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Travelling with a new cologne or perfume? 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 allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
