Cheap Flights to Agou from HK$4,690

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Agou could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and wear closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your getaway to Agou quick and painless. We've rounded up some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
