Cheap Flights to Whiteland from HK$853

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will get your Whiteland escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Whiteland a pleasure. Below you'll find some useful tips for a swift journey through security:

• Have your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
