Cheap Flights to Sandwich from HK$702

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. Check out these top travel tips that will get your Sandwich holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring 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 objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Sandwich in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Keep your travel documents and ID within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
