Cheap Flights to Kampung Wang Perah from HK$235

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Kampung Wang Perah escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Kampung Wang Perah a piece of cake. Here are some handy tips for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
