Cheap Flights to Guiyu from HK$882

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Guiyu could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural fibers and bring a jacket just in case you get cold. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your luggage.
• Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help reduce this risk.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Guiyu in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
• Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
