Cheap Flights to Groveland from HK$585

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Groveland could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be easy if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and go for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to slip on and off.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

Being organised before your flight can make your trip to Groveland easy and painless. We've rounded up some top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
