Cheap Flights to Ngatangiia from HK$1,658

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Ngatangiia vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a hassle-free flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a wise idea.
• The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression socks may also help.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Ngatangiia in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• 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 baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
