Cheap Flights to Falling Waters from HK$856

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a hassle-free start to your time in Falling Waters. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you bring the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids 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 comfortable clothing and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Watch out Falling Waters, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional 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 in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
