Cheap Flights to Glyngore from HK$1,231

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Glyngore could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a great experience if you've got all the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

The secret is to be prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Glyngore in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
