Cheap Flights to Nigel from HK$559

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Nigel in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a good read. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and wear easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

It's all about being organised. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Nigel, here you come:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
