Cheap Flights to Borongan City from HK$372

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these handy travel tips that will help get your Borongan City holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy footwear like sneakers.
• Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you reach security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Borongan City before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a chance you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
