Cheap Flights to Zouk Mosbeh from HK$796

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips for a worry-free start to your holiday in Zouk Mosbeh. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you take the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Zouk Mosbeh quick and painless. Check out our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually 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 in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
