Cheap Flights to Fontana Village from HK$2,888

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a pain-free start to your holiday in Fontana Village. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Fontana Village in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
