Cheap Flights to Woodstock from HK$701

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a stress-free start to your time in Woodstock. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your getaway to Woodstock easy and painless. We've rounded up some handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favourite perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
