Cheap Flights to Artik from HK$621

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and seeing the best of Artik in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are good options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

It's simple — be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Artik, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
