Cheap Flights to Shoshone from HK$701

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Shoshone could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good read. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Shoshone in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually 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 quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
