Cheap Flights to Chachagua from HK$1,267

If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a worry-free start to your getaway in Chachagua.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, important documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to pack a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help reduce this risk.

The trick is to be prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Chachagua in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray 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-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
