Cheap Flights to Richmond Hill from HK$1,048

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Richmond Hill could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural-fiber clothing and pack a pullover just in case you get cold. Always go with flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your luggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk up and down the aisles wherever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Richmond Hill, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
