Cheap Flights to Rock Lake from HK$406

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and having a blast in Rock Lake in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be easy if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your trip to Rock Lake easy and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Travelling with a new perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
