Cheap Flights to Johns Island from HK$735

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a pleasant start to your getaway in Johns Island. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Johns Island before you know it. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
