Cheap Flights to Kochchikade from HK$551

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Kochchikade could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to take a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Kochchikade in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
