Cheap Flights to Cayuga from HK$580

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will help get your Cayuga escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and take a jacket just in case you get chilly. Go for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to lessen your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be well prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Cayuga in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
