Cheap Flights to Mani from HK$7,041

If you're not prepared, traveling can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a comfortable start to your getaway in Mani.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a good choice.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Mani in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
