Cheap Flights to Anpo from HK$874

If you're not prepared, air travel can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pleasant start to your getaway in Anpo.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and remember to take a sweater as it can get quite cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also recommended.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Anpo in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
