Cheap Flights to Agrafa from HK$1,679

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Agrafa could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for an easy trip through airport security. Watch out Agrafa, here you come:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
