Cheap Flights to Xing County from HK$958

If you're not prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a hassle-free start to your time in Xing County. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are always good options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes 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 by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The trick is to be organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Xing County in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
