Cheap Flights to Jefferson from HK$8,439

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. Check out these essential travel tips that will get your Jefferson vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple --- first, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also recommended.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks is also a wise idea.

The answer is simple --- be prepared. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Jefferson, here you come:

• Have your ID and travel documents handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
