Cheap Flights to Almachar from HK$3,104

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will get your Almachar escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during longer flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights is also recommended.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your trip to Almachar a breeze. Read through our top tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Have your travel documents and passport someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
