Cheap Flights to Whitegate from HK$1,177

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and having a blast in Whitegate in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, important documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you intend to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull 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 inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Whitegate easy and painless. We've compiled some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• The X-ray machine comes 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 coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
