Cheap Flights to Weymouth from HK$9,314

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and seeing the best of Weymouth in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, put in your passport, important documents, credit 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 favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be organised before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Weymouth in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

• Keep your ID and travel documents at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• 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 lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
