Cheap Flights to Naousa from HK$588

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Naousa escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm 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 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and opt for shoes that are flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Naousa easy and painless. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on 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, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
