Cheap Flights to Baddeck from HK$10,591

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Baddeck could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Baddeck a piece of cake. We've rounded up some handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Travelling with a new perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
