Cheap Flights to Brownsweg from HK$2,870

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. We've compiled a list of handy tips that will help get your Brownsweg holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy shoes like slip-ons.
• Caused by sustained 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 ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Brownsweg before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
