Cheap Flights to Bowmanville from HK$709

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will help get your Bowmanville holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being organised before your flight will make your trip to Bowmanville quick and painless. We've compiled some handy hints for a swift journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
