Cheap Flights to Marratxi from HK$175

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Marratxi could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a good idea.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are numerous ways to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some stretches in your seat.

Being organized before your flight can make your trip to Marratxi a breeze. Below are some top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
