Cheap Flights to New Victoria from HK$8,710

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to New Victoria could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to New Victoria in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
