Cheap Flights to Mitchellsburg from HK$3,299

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. We've made a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Mitchellsburg escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help minimize this risk.

The secret is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Mitchellsburg in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
