Cheap Flights to Blatna from HK$420

No matter where 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 Blatna escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to pack a sweater in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's lots you can do to mitigate your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

The trick is to be prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Blatna in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
