Cheap Flights to Dachi from HK$471

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will help get your Dachi holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you take the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've pulled together some top tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Dachi, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready to show.
• Your coat, 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 as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• 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.
