Cheap Flights to Bermeo from HK$464

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and exploring Bermeo in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a good read. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your top priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.

As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Bermeo before you know it. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the queue.
• The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's 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 electronics will need to go through the scanner.
• Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
• Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
