Cheap Flights to Barra Velha from HK$605

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Barra Velha.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

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 gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

• The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
• Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help lower your risk.

The simple answer is --- be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Barra Velha, here you come:

• Have your passport and boarding pass at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
• All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned.
• Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on baggage.
• Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase.
