Cheap Flights to Hoboken from HK$1,706

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and enjoying Hoboken in next to no time. 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 docs, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up, and wear flat, closed-toe shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being organised before your flight can make your trip to Hoboken a pleasure. Here are some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
