Cheap Flights to Ozamiz from HK$868

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will get your Ozamiz escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember 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 conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be the goal when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Slightly roomy, flat shoes work well.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's lots you can do to minimize your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Ozamiz a breeze. Here are some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
