Cheap Flights to Yumbo from HK$440

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and enjoying Yumbo in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Yumbo, here you come:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
• Travelling with a new cologne or perfume? Not a problem. 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 OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
