Cheap Flights to Salas from HK$770

If you're not prepared, traveling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pain-free start to your vacation in Salas.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel 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 main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Pick flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Salas, here you come:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
