Cheap Flights to Brook Park from HK$1,348

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy tips that will get your Brook Park holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are some great options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Brook Park a pleasure. Check out our top tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a 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 sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
