Cheap Flights to Sugarloaf Key from HK$3,712

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of handy tips that will help get your Sugarloaf Key escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and remember to bring a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a wise idea.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander through the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

The trick is to be well organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Sugarloaf Key before you know it. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• 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-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
