Cheap Flights to Tara from HK$407

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your getaway in Tara.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a good book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and bring a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also recommended.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights is also a wise idea.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for an easy trip through security. Watch out Tara, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with a new cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
