Cheap Flights to North Dartmouth from HK$1,042

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to North Dartmouth could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pick shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to remove.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being organised before you get to the airport will make your trip to North Dartmouth easy and painless. Below you'll find some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
• There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
