Cheap Flights to Silio from HK$951

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Silio could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural-fiber clothing and pack a cardigan just in case you get chilly. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help reduce this risk.

It's all about being organized. We've put together some top tips for an easy trip through security. Watch out Silio, here you come:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
