Cheap Flights to Lake Worth from HK$1,189

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Lake Worth could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy footwear like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

The trick is to be well organised before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Lake Worth in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need 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 have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
