Cheap Flights to Burscough from HK$1,904

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and seeing the best of Burscough in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and wear closed-toe, flat shoes like sneakers.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Burscough easy and painless. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
