Cheap Flights to Lasko from HK$488

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. Follow these handy tips that will help get your Lasko escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a great experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and bring a sweater in case it gets cool in the cabin. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your luggage.
• The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights is also recommended.

It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Lasko, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them close by.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
