Cheap Flights to Papar from HK$224

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. We've put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Papar vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and take a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good idea too.
• A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Papar in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked for by 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 items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
