Cheap Flights to Advocate Harbour from HK$319

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well prepared. We've made a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Advocate Harbour escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Advocate Harbour a breeze. We've rounded up some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume? 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 fine to bring with you on board.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
