Cheap Flights to Marchena from HK$3,792

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Marchena. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First of all, pack in your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pick shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
• Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

The simple answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some top tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Marchena, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
