Cheap Flights to Cliffside Park from HK$2,901

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your time in Cliffside Park. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and opt for flat, closed-toe shoes like slip-ons.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Cliffside Park in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport handy. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. 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.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
