Cheap Flights to Cynthiana from HK$6,745

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and discovering Cynthiana in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

It's all about being organised. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Cynthiana, here you come:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Travelling with your favourite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
