Cheap Flights to Kalopanayiotis from HK$385

If you're not prepared, travelling can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a hassle-free start to your time in Kalopanayiotis. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Kalopanayiotis before you know it. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• Have your boarding pass and passport close by. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
