Cheap Flights to Elk from HK$2,467

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Elk could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a good idea.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Elk in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. 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 also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand and nail cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
