Cheap Flights to Cinfães from HK$294

Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Cinfães could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• It's easy — first, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

The answer is simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Watch out Cinfães, here you come:

• Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. 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, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
• All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
• Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
