Cheap Flights to Centre Hall from HK$5,503

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Centre Hall could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and pick closed-toe, flat footwear like slip-ons.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Centre Hall quick and painless. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

• Keep your ID and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Travelling with 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 zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
