Cheap Flights to Matt from HK$482

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

• A plane trip can be easy if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your trip to Matt a piece of cake. Read through our handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

• Have your passport and travel documents close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
