• First and foremost, put in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are good options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your getaway to Lam Ta Sao a breeze. We've rounded up some top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Have your travel documents and ID within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
