Cheap Flights to North Bend from HK$3,260

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to North Bend could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are your best bet.
• A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights may also help.

The trick is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to North Bend in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. 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 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
