Cheap Flights to Mios from HK$189

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Mios could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Below are some useful travel 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 great experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your bank 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 of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and remember to pack a jacket just in case you get cold. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks can also help.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Mios a piece of cake. Read through our handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
