Cheap Flights to Canonica from HK$3,602

If you're not prepared, air travel can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a worry-free start to your getaway in Canonica.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a few magazines. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also recommended.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Canonica easy and painless. Below are some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

• Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
