Cheap Flights to Underwood from HK$702

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a comfortable start to your holiday in Underwood. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pick shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Underwood in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents within easy reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
