Cheap Flights to Maenza from HK$284

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Maenza could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Maenza before you know it. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

• Keep your passport and boarding pass within easy reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• 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 soon enough.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
