Cheap Flights to Adra from HK$341

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be challenging. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pleasant start to your getaway in Adra. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Adra a piece of cake. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Keep your travel documents and passport within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favourite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
