Cheap Flights to Norseman from HK$1,143

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your holiday in Norseman. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and pick easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Norseman before you know it. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
