Cheap Flights to Cornelius from HK$544

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a worry-free start to your time in Cornelius. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, 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:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and pick shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Cornelius, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
