Cheap Flights to Conway from HK$6,029

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in Conway. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are good options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and pick slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Conway a pleasure. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
