Cheap Flights to Sutton Scotney from HK$890

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

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and opt for flat, enclosed footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Sutton Scotney a breeze. We've compiled some handy hints for a stress-free journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
