Cheap Flights to Sugar Hill from HK$6,619

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these handy hints that will get your Sugar Hill vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a good read. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's lots you can do to lower your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be organized before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Sugar Hill in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
