Cheap Flights to Muggia from HK$2,185

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Muggia holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are good options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and pick slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Muggia quick and painless. Read through our handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
