Cheap Flights to Normandy Park from HK$2,817

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your time in Normandy Park. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Normandy Park in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
