Cheap Flights to West Salem from HK$777

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to West Salem could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to pack a pullover just in case you get chilly. Always opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
• It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's lots you can do to lower your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Wander around the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to West Salem before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
