Cheap Flights to Drewsteignton from HK$6,489

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a pleasant start to your holiday in Drewsteignton. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being organised before your flight will help make your getaway to Drewsteignton easy and painless. Here are some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Have your travel documents and passport easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
