Cheap Flights to Elko New Market from HK$1,918

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organised. Take a peek at these handy tips that will get your Elko New Market holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by wearing layers, and pick easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Elko New Market before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy 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, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
