Cheap Flights to Burntwood from HK$3,268

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Burntwood in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a good book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

It's all about being prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a speedy trip through security. Look out Burntwood, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favourite hand and nail cream? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
