Cheap Flights to Kartong from HK$5,354

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Kartong could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure 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 substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be the goal when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Kartong, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
