Cheap Flights to Marumbi from HK$2,117

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Marumbi could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and opt for closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Look out Marumbi, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Want to bring along your favourite perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
