Cheap Flights to Sunset from HK$2,264

If you're not prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a stress-free start to your time in Sunset. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and opt for flat, slightly roomy footwear like slip-ons.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your lower limbs often.

The secret is to be organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Sunset in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport close by. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater 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 take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
