Cheap Flights to Atotonilco from HK$1,584

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. Take a peek at these handy tips that will get your Atotonilco escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Atotonilco in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

• Keep your passport and travel documents someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
