Cheap Flights to Muktsar from HK$254

If you're not prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a hassle-free start to your getaway in Muktsar.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and take a sweater just in case you get chilly. Opt for roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and wander the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before your flight can make your getaway to Muktsar easy and painless. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
