Cheap Flights to Foça from HK$485

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Foca could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a great flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander through the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Foca in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
• Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
