Cheap Flights to Chita from HK$362

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will get your Chita vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good idea too.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help lower your risk.

The secret is to be organized before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Chita in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine 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-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
