Cheap Flights to Hoenow from HK$323

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Hoenow holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you pack the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Hoenow in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
