Cheap Flights to Clayton from HK$660

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Clayton could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your trip to Clayton quick and painless. We've rounded up some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Want to bring along your favourite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
