Cheap Flights to Vilanova de Arousa from HK$4,277

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a trouble-free start to your getaway in Vilanova de Arousa.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should always be your highest priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a smart option.
• Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are many ways to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

The secret is to be prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Vilanova de Arousa in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

• Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don't have to dig around for them.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
• Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
