Cheap Flights to Henry from HK$6,199

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your getaway in Henry. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes like slip-ons.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your lower limbs often.

Being organised before your flight will make your trip to Henry a piece of cake. Below are some top tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
