Cheap Flights to Rixincun from HK$611

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will get your Rixincun holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Rixincun quick and painless. We've rounded up some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Keep your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
