Cheap Flights to Eden Roc from HK$386

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Eden Roc could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet 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 plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull on and off.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Eden Roc in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Travelling with a new hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
