Cheap Flights to Shenandoah from HK$4,014

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and discovering Shenandoah in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short nap, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Shenandoah in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels 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 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
