Cheap Flights to Caret from HK$4,152

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will get your Caret escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Caret in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Keep your travel documents and ID within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
