Cheap Flights to Mae Nam from HK$888

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Mae Nam could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and remember to bring a cardigan in case it gets cool in the cabin. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Mae Nam in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
