Cheap Flights to Port St Johns from HK$9,407

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Port St Johns could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and walk around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your trip to Port St Johns a pleasure. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Have your passport and boarding pass close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
