Cheap Flights to Chiautempan from HK$11,727

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will help get your Chiautempan holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack your passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach 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:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are flat and easy to take on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

It's all about being organised. We've compiled some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Chiautempan, here you come:

• Have your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
