Cheap Flights to Walpole from HK$561

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a pain-free start to your getaway in Walpole.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be the goal when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Walpole, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Traveling with your favorite perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
