Cheap Flights to Ranelagh from HK$471

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Ranelagh could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Don layers of breathable clothing and remember to pack a sweater just in case you get chilly. Always opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your luggage.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk up and down the aisles as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The secret is to be well organized before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Ranelagh in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
