Cheap Flights to Apollonas from HK$4,005

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Apollonas could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, important documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be well organised before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Apollonas in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

• Have your boarding pass and ID handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
