Cheap Flights to Delight from HK$5,116

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. Follow these handy hints that will get your Delight escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

The secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Delight in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

• Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Travelling with a new perfume? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
