Cheap Flights to Canale from HK$4,160

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Canale holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• First, put in your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

The secret is to be well organised before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Canale in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
• Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. 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 inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
• Knives and other sharp items can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
