Cheap Flights to Sofiko from HK$572

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Sofiko could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a good idea.
• A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks may also help.

The simple answer is --- be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Watch out Sofiko, here you come:

• Keep your boarding pass and ID handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
