Cheap Flights to Clay Cross from HK$5,700

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. Check out these handy tips that will get your Clay Cross escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your getaway to Clay Cross a piece of cake. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Traveling with a new perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
