Cheap Flights to Galeton from HK$8,723

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organised. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will help get your Galeton holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are always good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Galeton in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
