Cheap Flights to Bishop from HK$865

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organized. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will get your Bishop escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack your passport, important documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and pack a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your main luggage.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's plenty you can do to mitigate your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Look out Bishop, here you come:

• Keep your ID and boarding pass handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Traveling with your favorite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
