Cheap Flights to Minfutun from HK$788

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Minfutun. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and opt for flat, closed-toe footwear like slip-ons.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

Being prepared before your flight will help make your trip to Minfutun a pleasure. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Have your ID and boarding pass within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
