Cheap Flights to Covington from HK$1,714

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well prepared. Check out these top travel tips that will help get your Covington vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help reduce this risk.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Covington easy and painless. Below you'll find some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
