Cheap Flights to Plech from HK$1,121

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. Follow these top travel tips that will get your Plech escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and go for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

The answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Plech, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
