Cheap Flights to Trimsaran from HK$1,765

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a stress-free start to your getaway in Trimsaran. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your getaway to Trimsaran a pleasure. Here are some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Travelling with your favourite cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
