Cheap Flights to Broadlands Forest from HK$621

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Broadlands Forest escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and wear flat, enclosed footwear like sneakers.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Broadlands Forest a breeze. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
