Cheap Flights to Trinity East from HK$1,230

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Trinity East could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've put together some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a good book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The secret is to be well organised before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Trinity East in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
