Cheap Flights to Eagle-Vail from HK$3,533

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Eagle-Vail could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a cardigan just in case you get cold. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

It's all about being prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Eagle-Vail, here you come:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
