Cheap Flights to Zixing from HK$1,085

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through airport security and enjoying Zixing in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's simple — first, put in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to lessen your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

The secret is to be well prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Zixing in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Airport security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
• Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
