Cheap Flights to Teton from HK$2,296

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will help get your Teton escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and wear closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Teton in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Travelling with a new perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
