Cheap Flights to La Ribera from HK$794

Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to La Ribera could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First and foremost, pack in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a sensible choice.
• Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

It's all about being prepared. We've pulled together some top tips for a speedy trip through airport security. Look out La Ribera, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. 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 in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
