Cheap Flights to Langlois from HK$5,704

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

• First and foremost, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some great options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and choose shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Langlois in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
