Cheap Flights to Orangeville from HK$410

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be challenging. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a trouble-free start to your getaway in Orangeville. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

The trick is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Orangeville in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
