Cheap Flights to Saints Constantine and Helena from HK$1,827

If you're not prepared, travelling can be testing. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a worry-free start to your time in Saints Constantine and Helena. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

Being organised before your flight can make your getaway to Saints Constantine and Helena a piece of cake. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Have your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
