Cheap Flights to San Fernando from HK$155

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to San Fernando could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be easy if you bring the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to San Fernando a piece of cake. Below are some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be shown to airport security. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Can't travel without your favourite hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
