Cheap Flights to Lami from HK$819

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Lami could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to take a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks may also help.

It's all about being prepared. We've put together some top tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Lami, here you come:

• Have your ID and travel documents close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
