Cheap Flights to West Ridgley from HK$2,704

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in West Ridgley. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be easy if you've got all the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel 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 go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to West Ridgley a piece of cake. We've rounded up some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
