Cheap Flights to Rain from HK$717

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and discovering Rain in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your getaway to Rain a piece of cake. Below you'll find some handy hints for a stress-free journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
