Cheap Flights to New Brighton from HK$1,584

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. Check out these top travel tips that will get your New Brighton vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good read. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your priority when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are your best bet.
• It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to New Brighton a pleasure. Here are some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
