Cheap Flights to Seymour from HK$1,706

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these essential travel tips that will get your Seymour escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be easy if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

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 compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for slightly roomy, flat shoes like sneakers.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Seymour a piece of cake. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good 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.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
