Cheap Flights to Fengdu from HK$806

If you're not prepared, traveling can be challenging. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your vacation in Fengdu.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Always go with roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Fengdu a pleasure. Check out our handy tips for a swift journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
