Cheap Flights to La Gi from HK$339

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will help get your La Gi escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you carry the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to La Gi quick and painless. Below you'll find some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Keep your travel documents and passport handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
