Cheap Flights to Zhangjiakou from HK$640

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a ball in Zhangjiakou in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good idea.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help minimize this risk.

The answer is --- be prepared. We've pulled together some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Zhangjiakou, here you come:

• Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, must also be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
