Cheap Flights to Saltcoats from HK$256

If you're not prepared, traveling can be testing. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a trouble-free start to your getaway in Saltcoats.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural-fiber clothing and remember to pack a jacket in case it gets cool in the cabin. Pick a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
• Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

It's all about being prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Saltcoats, here you come:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great 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.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
