Cheap Flights to Rea from HK$3,457

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Rea could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Rea a piece of cake. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Have your ID and travel documents within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand 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 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
