Cheap Flights to Newhaven from HK$354

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Newhaven could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you carry the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents 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 gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and opt for easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

It's simple — be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Newhaven, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
