Cheap Flights to Russellville from HK$4,184

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Russellville could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

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

• Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you on board.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
