Cheap Flights to Wharekaho from HK$3,223

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Wharekaho could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and take a jacket in case you get cold. Always go with well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your checked luggage.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help minimize this risk.

It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some top tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Wharekaho, here you come:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
