Cheap Flights to Bunratty from HK$1,101

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Bunratty could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy --- first, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be your number one priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a good idea.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

It's all about being prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Bunratty, here you come:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
