Cheap Flights to Thorshofn from HK$390

If you're not prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a hassle-free start to your getaway in Thorshofn.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your prime concern when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy work well.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Thorshofn in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
