Cheap Flights to Pocono Manor from HK$2,028

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a trouble-free start to your time in Pocono Manor. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The secret is to be well organised before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Pocono Manor before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, 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 devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. 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 inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
