Cheap Flights to Low Bradfield from HK$530

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy travel tips that will get your Low Bradfield escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. 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:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Low Bradfield in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
