Cheap Flights to Ferreira do Alentejo from HK$351

If you're not prepared, traveling can be overwhelming. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Ferreira do Alentejo.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
• Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

The trick is to be organized before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Ferreira do Alentejo in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
