Cheap Flights to Harbinger from HK$1,007

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Harbinger could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a good book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

It's easy — be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Harbinger, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Want to bring along your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
