Cheap Flights to Goto from HK$4,894

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of top travel tips that will get your Goto holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget 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 airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and choose shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

Being organised before your flight will help make your trip to Goto a piece of cake. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Have your boarding pass and passport at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
