Cheap Flights to Ranua from HK$1,572

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and having a ball in Ranua in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone and charger, any medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some stretches in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Ranua a pleasure. Below are some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Traveling with a new cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
