Cheap Flights to Shahumyan from HK$787

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a comfortable start to your vacation in Shahumyan.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your number one priority when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are quite common. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea.
• Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Wear compression socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

It's all about being prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Shahumyan, here you come:

• Keep your passport and boarding pass easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
