Cheap Flights to Jianshi County from HK$1,280

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Jianshi County could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. Below are some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to lower your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some top tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out Jianshi County, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Have them close by so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets 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 in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in 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 and will be confiscated.
