Cheap Flights to Lutong from HK$1,096

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will help get your Lutong vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be easy if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when picking what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy work well.
• The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The trick is to be organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Lutong in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favorite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
