Cheap Flights to Serbonnes from HK$274

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Serbonnes could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've put together some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Serbonnes in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Keep your travel documents and passport within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport 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 all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
