Cheap Flights to Colton from HK$540

If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a stress-free start to your time in Colton. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, important documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.

Being prepared before your flight can make your trip to Colton a pleasure. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favourite cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
