Cheap Flights to Gibraltar Range from HK$574

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Gibraltar Range could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good read. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
• The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

The answer is — be prepared. We've compiled some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Gibraltar Range, here you come:

• First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach 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 earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
