Cheap Flights to Hallstavik from HK$480

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and discovering Hallstavik in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Hallstavik quick and painless. We've compiled some top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favourite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
