Cheap Flights to Toledo from HK$2,714

If you're not prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a trouble-free start to your vacation in Toledo.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. 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:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good idea.
• Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help lower your risk.

The secret is to be organized before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Toledo in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
