Cheap Flights to Suqian from HK$1,234

If you're not prepared, travelling can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a stress-free start to your getaway in Suqian. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to pull on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your trip to Suqian a breeze. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to have your ID and boarding pass at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
