Cheap Flights to East Flat Rock from HK$1,641

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your East Flat Rock holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any daily medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and opt for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to East Flat Rock a piece of cake. Check out our useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Have your ID and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
