Cheap Flights to Dallardsville from HK$702

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be challenging. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a stress-free start to your getaway in Dallardsville.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are many ways to lessen your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

The answer is simple — be organized. We've put together some useful tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Dallardsville, here you come:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
