Cheap Flights to Francisco Uh May from HK$920

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Francisco Uh May could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've compiled some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The trick is to be organised before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Francisco Uh May before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
