Cheap Flights to Stone from HK$725

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Stone could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. 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.

Being prepared before your flight can make your getaway to Stone easy and painless. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
