Cheap Flights to Saint-Ignace-de-Stanbridge from HK$861

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organised. We've made a list of handy tips that will get your Saint-Ignace-de-Stanbridge escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a pleasure if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and opt for shoes that are flat and easy to pull on and off.
• It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Saint-Ignace-de-Stanbridge a piece of cake. Below are some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
