Cheap Flights to Passo Oscuro from HK$415

If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your holiday in Passo Oscuro. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Flying can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Your priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Passo Oscuro quick and painless. We've compiled some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

• Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
