Cheap Flights to Skala from HK$299

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and exploring Skala in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a pleasure if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your lower limbs often.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Skala easy and painless. Check out our handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
