Cheap Flights to Steep Falls from HK$5,592

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Steep Falls holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being organised before your flight can make your getaway to Steep Falls quick and painless. Check out our useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• Keep your travel documents and passport within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often 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.
