Cheap Flights to Westfield from HK$1,642

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through the airport and seeing the best of Westfield in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Westfield, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your passport and boarding pass at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
