Cheap Flights to Ibarra from HK$1,174

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Ibarra could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Next, make room in your bag for your phone and charger, medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort really should be the goal when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy work well.
• Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance travel is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help minimize this risk.

It's all about being organized. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Ibarra, here you come:

• Be sure to have your ID and travel documents easily accessible. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
• Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
