Cheap Flights to Cranbrook from HK$8,844

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and seeing the best of Cranbrook before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being organised before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Cranbrook a pleasure. Check out our handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favourite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
