Cheap Flights to Pearl River from HK$927

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in Pearl River before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim here is to be as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural-fiber clothing and pack a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your main luggage.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and wander the aisles as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a speedy trip through security. Look out Pearl River, here you come:

• Keep your passport and boarding pass within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
