Cheap Flights to Byron from HK$895

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pain-free start to your time in Byron. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and wear closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Byron before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Be sure to keep your passport and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
