Cheap Flights to Rosemead from HK$2,794

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Rosemead escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be the goal when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea.
• The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights can also help.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Rosemead in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
