Cheap Flights to Pasig from HK$155

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy travel tips that will get your Pasig escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a great experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and choose shoes that are flat and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your trip to Pasig a pleasure. We've compiled some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

• Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
