Cheap Flights to Cape Palliser from HK$505

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Cape Palliser could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful hints that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and walk around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

It's all about being organized. We've put together some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Cape Palliser, here you come:

• Have your travel documents and ID close by. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
