Cheap Flights to Jinze from HK$497

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Jinze could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Jinze a pleasure. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. 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 quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
