Cheap Flights to Faedo from HK$466

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these handy hints that will help get your Faedo escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

It's all about being prepared. We've compiled some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Faedo, here you come:

• Have your boarding pass and ID within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be separately scanned.
• Travelling with your favourite hand cream? 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're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
