Cheap Flights to Masaka from HK$1,688

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Masaka could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack your passport, important documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
• You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to mitigate your risk. Wear compression socks, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.

Being organized before your flight will help make your getaway to Masaka a pleasure. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
