Cheap Flights to Jewett City from HK$1,528

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. We've compiled a list of handy tips that will help get your Jewett City escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and opt for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your trip to Jewett City a breeze. We've compiled some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

• Keep your boarding pass and passport easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
