Cheap Flights to Porterdale from HK$627

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will get your Porterdale vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

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 bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and remember to pack a pullover just in case you get cold. Always go with well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your luggage.
• It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to minimize your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

The simple answer is --- be prepared. We've put together some useful tips for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Porterdale, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
