Cheap Flights to Cola from HK$190

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Cola could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you take the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any daily medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Cola, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favorite hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
