Cheap Flights to Chai Wan from HK$316

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a blast in Chai Wan in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

The trick is to be organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Chai Wan in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Want to bring along your favourite hand cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
