Cheap Flights to Chintsa from HK$6,027

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Chintsa could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance 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 tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Chintsa easy and painless. We've compiled some handy hints for a stress-free journey past security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and ID within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
