Cheap Flights to Stevens Village from HK$3,523

If you're not prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a pleasant start to your time in Stevens Village.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a pair of compression socks is also recommended.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Stevens Village quick and painless. Check out our top tips for a swift journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
