Cheap Flights to Emigrant from HK$1,039

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and exploring Emigrant before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Emigrant quick and painless. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
