Cheap Flights to Xinxiang from HK$710

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. Check out these essential travel tips that will get your Xinxiang vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to pack a cardigan in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and wander the aisles as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your trip to Xinxiang a pleasure. Below you'll find some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
