Cheap Flights to Ma'In from HK$869

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Ma'In could be a breeze or it could go on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some top tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Ma'In, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• 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 trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be scanned.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
