Cheap Flights to Lonja from HK$892

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

• Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and wear easy-to-remove shoes like slip-ons.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Lonja in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
