Cheap Flights to Nicasio from HK$2,616

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Nicasio escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice in clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's lots you can do to minimize your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Watch out Nicasio, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be separately scanned.
• Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
