Cheap Flights to Gas City from HK$1,713

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Gas City could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

It's all about being organised. We've put together some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Gas City, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
