Cheap Flights to Cala Gracio from HK$1,591

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Cala Gracio holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are flat and easy to remove.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

A little pre-planning before your flight can make your getaway to Cala Gracio easy and painless. Check out our top tips for a swift journey through security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
• Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
• Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
• Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
