Cheap Flights to Sam Suan from HK$195

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Sam Suan escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and don't forget to pack a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

Being organized before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Sam Suan a piece of cake. We've rounded up some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy 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 safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
