Cheap Flights to Meldrim from HK$745

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. Follow these essential travel tips that will get your Meldrim vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and wander the aisles as much as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The answer is simple --- be prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Meldrim, here you come:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
