Cheap Flights to Gland from HK$398

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. Check out these handy hints that will get your Gland escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up in breathable clothing and pack a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin. Always go with well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. But the great news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and wander the aisles wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before your flight can make your trip to Gland a pleasure. Read through our useful tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
