Cheap Flights to Taizhou from HK$650

We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and exploring Taizhou in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and pick closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Taizhou in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
