Cheap Flights to Wheatland from HK$8,655

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and discovering Wheatland before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Wheatland, here you come:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
