Cheap Flights to Lossiemouth from HK$305

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Lossiemouth could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Lossiemouth, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID handy. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
