Cheap Flights to Rockfield from HK$1,212

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will get your Rockfield holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

Being organised before your flight can make your getaway to Rockfield easy and painless. Check out our top tips for a swift journey through security:

• Have your passport and travel documents within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
