Cheap Flights to Kastelir from HK$856

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a pain-free start to your getaway in Kastelir. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you bring the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

It's simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Look out Kastelir, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
