Cheap Flights to Zia from HK$923

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Zia could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items 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 hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural-fiber clothing and bring a sweater in case it gets cool in the cabin. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help reduce this risk.

The secret is to be organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Zia before you know it. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Traveling with a new hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
