Cheap Flights to Salla from HK$2,604

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a pain-free start to your time in Salla.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are always good options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is often as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
• Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help lower your risk.

It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Salla, here you come:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
