Cheap Flights to Ten Mile from HK$1,239

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of handy tips that will get your Ten Mile escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The secret is to be organised before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Ten Mile in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. 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 in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky 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 baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
