Cheap Flights to Orlandia from HK$3,128

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be challenging. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a trouble-free start to your time in Orlandia. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being organised before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Orlandia a breeze. We've compiled some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Your ID and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
