Cheap Flights to Seaside Heights from HK$615

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. We've made a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Seaside Heights holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be easy if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your trip to Seaside Heights quick and painless. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at security.
• 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. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
