Cheap Flights to Lana from HK$1,738

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Lana could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by dressing in layers, and pick slightly roomy, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Lana, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. 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-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
