Cheap Flights to Ferrassières from HK$420

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Ferrassières could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a pleasure if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and go for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to slip on and off.
• The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Ferrassières a breeze. We've rounded up some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

• Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Can't travel without your favourite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
