Cheap Flights to Borden-Carleton from HK$641

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a pleasant start to your time in Borden-Carleton. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and pick easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Borden-Carleton, here you come:

• Have your passport and boarding pass handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product 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.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
