Cheap Flights to Stavoren from HK$1,456

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will help get your Stavoren escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are good options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Stavoren in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky 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, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
