Cheap Flights to Guanxi from HK$525

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a blast in Guanxi in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First things first, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to mitigate your risk. Wear compression socks, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some stretches in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Guanxi quick and painless. Here are some top tips for a speedy journey through security:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
