Cheap Flights to Sayq from HK$1,043

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Sayq could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be well organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Sayq in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
