Cheap Flights to Boones Mill from HK$2,388

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and having a ball in Boones Mill before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you take the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and bring a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Boones Mill in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Traveling with a new hand cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
