Cheap Flights to Riggins from HK$1,089

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Riggins vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to pack a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your trip to Riggins quick and painless. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
