Cheap Flights to Hawkesbury from HK$613

If you're not prepared, air travel can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a hassle-free start to your vacation in Hawkesbury.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and bring a sweater in case it gets cool. Pick a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help lower your risk.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Hawkesbury easy and painless. Below you'll find some handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
