Cheap Flights to Pegeia from HK$4,657

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Pegeia could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Pegeia, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items like knives can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
