Cheap Flights to Cala San Vicente from HK$193

If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your vacation in Cala San Vicente.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The secret to having a great flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

• The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothing. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
• It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Cala San Vicente, here you come:

• Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
• Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• There's a possibility that you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
