Cheap Flights to Diamond Harbour from HK$819

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a blast in Diamond Harbour in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Diamond Harbour a breeze. Check out our handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

• First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
