Cheap Flights to Lanus from HK$446

If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a hassle-free start to your holiday in Lanus. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you take the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and wear easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Lanus a pleasure. Below you'll find some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your coat, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
