Cheap Flights to La Barben from HK$4,422

We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and exploring La Barben in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to La Barben in a flash. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, 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 tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
• Travelling with a new hand cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• There's a good chance you'll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
