Cheap Flights to Jonesboro from HK$552

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and discovering Jonesboro in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.

The secret is to be prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Jonesboro in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Have your boarding pass and ID within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your coat, 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 cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
