Cheap Flights to Tottenham from HK$1,697

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Tottenham could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

The trick is to be well prepared before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Tottenham in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
