Cheap Flights to Harrison from HK$3,198

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of top travel tips that will get your Harrison escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy footwear like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Harrison, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
• Travelling with a new hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you on board.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in 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 in the cabin.
