Cheap Flights to Plymouth from HK$831

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Plymouth vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural fibers and remember to pack a sweater just in case you get cold. Pick a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's lots you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Plymouth in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned.
• Want to bring along your favorite perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
