Cheap Flights to Oudtshoorn from HK$915

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through airport security and discovering Oudtshoorn in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Oudtshoorn a piece of cake. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
