Cheap Flights to Mingjian from HK$483

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Mingjian in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

It's simple — be prepared. We've pulled together some top tips for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Mingjian, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices also need to go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
