Cheap Flights to Lamont from HK$6,820

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Lamont escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

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

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Lamont easy and painless. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
• 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). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
