Cheap Flights to Limatambo from HK$488

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a pleasant start to your holiday in Limatambo. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Limatambo a pleasure. Here are some top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Want to bring along your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
