Cheap Flights to Peri from HK$2,038

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. Check out these top travel tips that will get your Peri escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you take the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for closed-toe, flat footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Peri easy and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Travelling with a new perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
