Cheap Flights to Cerdedo from HK$1,019

If you're not prepared, traveling can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your getaway in Cerdedo.What to pack in your hand luggage:

• The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

• The narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to bring a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also recommended.
• The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights is also a wise idea.

Being organized before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Cerdedo a piece of cake. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

• Be sure to have your travel documents and passport within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked for by security.
• Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
• For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• It's also possible you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
