Cheap Flights to Mercedes from HK$3,275

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and discovering Mercedes in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some great options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and pick flat, enclosed shoes like slip-ons.
• Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

The answer is simple — be organised. We've compiled some top tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Mercedes, here you come:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often 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 inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp or pointed items can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
