Cheap Flights to San Gusme from HK$451

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to San Gusme could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and wear flat, enclosed shoes like slip-ons.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to San Gusme in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

• Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
• Can't travel without your favourite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board.
