Cheap Flights to Handong from HK$802

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Handong could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, important documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are always good options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Handong in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• 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 suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
