Cheap Flights to Westfield from HK$8,778

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints for a comfortable start to your getaway in Westfield. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, put in your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite movies are good options. If you intend to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your trip to Westfield a breeze. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring 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 need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
